Hit The 49th Food & Spirit up for lunch with a friend. I will be omitting the da and time as not to incriminate myself with the boss. We started with drinks; Mantanuska Moose and Summer Soltice. My friend, who is definitely qualified as persnickety, wasn't fond of the blackberry remnants clogging up the straw but slurped it down with no other complaints. My Summer Solitice was refreshing and came in a cute glass. It has been scientifically proven cute glassware improves the taste of a drink. I ordered the Wasilla Winter Berry Salad. I swapped out the raspberry jalapeño vinegarette for Bleu cheese dressing. Ordering this salad was in the top 20 good decisions in my life. The walnuts are divinely candied with cinnamon, the sweetness duelled with pickled cherry sweetness, while the goat cheese tossed in a few punches with its cranberry creaminess. I stole a couple fries from my friend and was underwhelmed by their bland taste and under the armpit warmth. If I were to review the burger from my friend's over all reaction of shoulder shrugging, I'd say it was okay. The atmosphere had a catching lunch with the work crowd vibe. 4 out 5 stars. read more

A brilliant spot in an unassuming location! My husband, infant, and I came for dinner after a long walk taking in the crabapple tree blossoms. We came early enough that we got a booth no problem but note if you've got a larger party with little ones, you may have a wait - most of their seating options are high tops and they don't have highchairs. Now. Alaskan cuisine was a new one for me, but I was excited to try. We started our journey with some huckleberry old fashioneds. I love huckleberry and will always get it if available and this did not lead me astray. We started with crab dip which was a hit even with our baby. For the mains, my husband got the meatloaf platter and was obsessed. I had their specialty burger (a mix of beef and elk) that included arugula, goat cheese, jam and some onions - also top notch. To finish things off we got chocolate raspberry cheesecake and... Wow. Delectable. If it's not obvious, the food here is epic and I love the concept and theme. Will happily return next time we're in the area. That cheesecake though.... read more

We gave this unassuming little strip mile joint a try on Father's Day based on its great reviews overall, it was a very good experience. They do not offer high chairs and I definitely miss this is it meant that I had to try to juggle a beer and eating dinner with my 13 month old which definitely takes away from the experience so if you're gonna go in with kids be prepared. My son had the barbecue wings and they were very good. They had been smoked instead of just thrown in the fryer which was a nice touch. The blue cheese chips were really good as were the fish and chips. We had it with cod. Oh my goodness Yum next time my way to give the cheese ball a skip because it just wasn't my thing, but I knew that going in my husband wanted to try it though read more

The 49th has incredibly delicious food. I went for the first time on December 7th and ordered the grilled cheese. It's such a simple dish, yet so many places get it wrong-but The 49th absolutely nails it. The cheese-to-bread ratio is perfect, with multiple types of cheese that work beautifully together. I added a baked apple slice, which added an amazing depth and balance to the flavor profile. The waitress, Hannah was so bubbly and kind. There was a kiddo that had a birthday right behind us, and she made him feel so special that day. I will definitely be back, when in town read more

We got burgers and fish and chips and both were great! Lots of fun burgers to choose from, we got the dill burger and it was delicious. Great service and Mountain Dew on tap to boot. Excellent crunchy fries as well! read more

Great service and delicious food. The burger of the month was exactly what was needed after a morning hike and the coffee/hot chocolate cocktails were warm and delish. Would get again. read more

You gotta try this place! I came here for a solo meal post-hike in the area. I sat at the bar and watched the Broncos game with some regulars. The Alaskan Brewing Co (which The 49th has on draft in a variety of options) has a killer Pale Ale! I happened to arrive during HH (2-6pm every day) - they have phenomenal deals. I ordered Fish and Chips as an entree and was not disappointed! The tartar sauce had a slight kick and was flavorful, the fries are super crispy and yummy, and the cod was lights out! It was relatively tame for a Sunday evening; I bet this place gets packed during the week! Awesome vibe! read more

I've never seen an Alaskan restaurant before, so I was immediately intrigued by this spot. We arrived just before 3 on a Saturday and I was surprised how busy it was. We got the only available table and it remained busy until we left. My husband and I shared: - Fried Calamari (special) - Alcan Poutine Burger - Prosciutto in a Pear Tree Burger (special) They're busy for a reason - the food is delicious! I absolutely loved the citrus sauce on the calamari. Between the burgers, I preferred the poutine burger because it was saucier. We ordered our burgers medium and they came medium well which was a bit disappointing, but they were still delicious. read more

Everything i've tried here has been great. The jalapeño poppers are unique and amazing, they are deep fried and served with a balsamic glaze on top. The fish and chips and burgers are also good. The staff is friendly and attentive. The vibes inside are fun and you really feel like you're in an Alaskan bar. Great casual place to go out and watch a sports game and have some great food. read more

We showed up at the 49th and it seems that their policy is just to find a seat. In retrospect, the choice that I made was a mistake as the waitress in our section acted like she didn't even notice we were there. We had to ask somebody else to get menus. She finally came back around. We ordered a couple burgers and some drinks. When the burgers came, my wife wanted some ranch. She never brought that back so we had to ask somebody else to bring it. Finally we had to ask somebody else to get the check for us. It was amazing how many times she would be in and out of the kitchen and not even look our way. I still have to give three stars for the food, but service was definitely lacking. read more

Great Food, plus fun place to go. Waitress was having a great time with us. Salmon fish chips out of this world! Go!

Food 10/10- like this food is sooo good!!! Service : top notch The vibes: perfect! Great spot for a football game and food! read more

Our first night in Colorado we were hungry and looking for something near our hotel. We found this great little place. The food was amazing. I can't remember what I had and I'm honestly mad about it because we will be going back next year. The service was fantastic and friendly. They told us all the good things about the area to do. read more

Solid burger spot. The fries are coated in starch making them extra crispy. I tried a seasonal burger and it was good. The service was ok, and the vibe of the spot was cozy as it's covered in wood. A little pricey but solid. read more

Small restaurant with atmosphere for days. Staff is very friendly and seemed familiar with the majority of the patrons. Food was great, the cheese chips appetizer was insane. They had me with cheese and vinaigrette all over my hands despite hating getting dirty while eating. Burgers are a little above average and the seafood seemed fresh and well seasoned. Will be returning for sure. read more

WHAT A GEM!! Wow. I can't believe I've been living in Lakewood for over two years and just tried this place. The most important thing; The tapped beer tastes absolutely amazing. All the food was delicious, fresh and left me craving for more. We even saw a celebrity chef from Top Chef ordering takeout while we were there. So you know it's gotta be good. Will absolutely be back many, many more times. read more

Wow! First night in town, restaurant recommended by our AirBNB hosts. Lots of seafood, but we opted for their outstanding Brussel sprouts for an appetizer. I'll have to try to recreate at home. The Wasilla salad is another winner. Husband is having the elk meatloaf, and said it's good. The place is packed on a Wednesday night. There are drink specials, happy hour, and many Alaskan themed dishes. read more

Great food and service. Brought 2 kiddos and they loved it too. Will definitely come back!

Really wanted to love this place - it's close - I've been to Alaska and enjoyed the food and vibe when there. I just didn't love this place. Typical bar in a strip mall. Got there at 7:45 on a Saturday and the servers were quite occupied talking with themselves, cursing about this and that and disregarding me. The food was actually pretty good though! I had the fish and chips. read more

F.A.S.T. Review In Denver for an event and The 49th lives up to all the positive reviews. Food: we ordered the fish & chips Cod and the chicken club. Amazing, the Cod was great and cooked really well, the Chicken Club was enough food to feed two! We also ordered two 24oz beers, Alaskan IPA's, the Icy Bay was hoppy. Atmosphere: we dropped in during March Madness and CSU was playing. Lots of TV's in every direction, music playing in the background, but overall not that noisy. Service: first time here and it was packed. We learned that you have to write your name on the chalk board. We were lucky to be the first on the list and were seated fairly quickly. Our waitress took our order and food came out quickly. Tips: I'd love to try some of the starters, but would never be able to finish all that food. So come with friends and share. read more

The food was excellent and the service was great! We will be back again this week. Ian really curious what is in the mystery shot. They were delicious! read more

Very nice staff was super accommodating to our large party. The food, however, was just mediocre. The meatloaf was dry and lacking flavor. Fish and chips was barely passable. For Littleton this may be considered a good restaurant, but for those willing to drive 15 minutes out of Littleton there are hundreds of better restaurants. Can't understand how people in Littleton have such terrible taste in food! read more

We love this place. Tonight, however, was particularly good because we had the best server I've had in a very long time. Cody had a great attitude, perfect number of check-ins without smothering, was fun and friendly, and witty. The food was good as always and the ambiance feels like a lot cabin in the woods (or strip mall). read more

The 49th is always packed, but there's a reason. The food is a cut above and the beer selection (on tap) is always great. When I first reviewed The 49th, it was 2019, and I was just celebrating the first anniversary of my bucket-list trip to Alaska, which was fantastic. I guess I wasn't expecting elk on the menu, but don't bother asking why--their burgers are the bomb. So is their take on brussels sprouts (NOM). Don't be bummed--the 49th original location on South Kipling is still open, but they've also opened a store at Prince & Santa Fe Drive, right near old town Littleton. Smart move! read more

First of all, I'm visiting from Vegas so I don't want to sound like a queen and say that I'm hard to impress, but living in Vegas sets the standards for "good" restaurants pretty high and, woah! The 49th was genuinely impressive. First of all, super impressed with the service. Connor was super polite, helpful, friendly and knowledgeable! (Pay this man!! He's a gem). Super chill ambiance and, my god, the food. Wow. I had the Shepherd's Pie with a delicious mix of elk and beef with veggies, served open face with bread. Hot, flavorful, rich, hearty and just enough kick to be interesting. My friend had the AK Vacay burger which was an epic flavor profile (pineapple cream cheese and jalapeños anyone?). I was even impressed with the fries . Don't second guess it, just eat here. read more

I used to love this place but it really went downhill. don't dare to ask to have your burger cut in half they'll tell you to go F yourself .Also,don't stay a second after you pay your bill, they will kick you out. I know you're reading this you scumbags! DO BETTER! read more

This is a wonderful restaurant serving delicious food. My favorite is the Denali Jr, beef/elk combo. Delicious! Even my granddaughter who claims she doesn't like game meat, loves it! She wants to be sure to go every visit. Their food is better than bar food. The fries are the best (and I rarely eat fries - mainly because they taste like grease most of the time). These are fabulous! Their salads are beautiful and delicious. The salmon tastes fresh which I know is not possible. They must catch it, flash freeze it and ship it because it's delicious. Yes they have good for vegans, vegetarians and serious meat lovers. The beer options are great. They always seem to have a stout or porter on the menu and offer samples to buses choosing easier. Service is delightful, friendly, easy. The atmosphere is great. Big windows, bright and cheery. I go to the one on south Santa Fe and Prince. If you're looking for more of a bar feel, go to their place on South Kipling. Though that is usually much busier. I love the feel of the Prince St. place. Easy to park, great place for date night or to bring the kids. read more

Amazing duck farts and mussels never have had a bad meal and service is always friendly

Unsuspecting from outside, in a strip mall but when you go in it has a nice wooden cabin feel. Everything is themed after Alaska (the 49th state). Had some awesome Brussel sprouts with cranberries and balsamic and turkey Sandwich with caramelized onion and sourdough . Husband had a great burger that was nice and pink inside and the fries were on point, crispy and flavorful. Had a great selection of food and a good bar ! Def would go back read more

Cool spot hidden in the middle of a strip mall. It is simple with an Alaskan theme. If it is busy, don't forget to write your name on the board asap as that is how the wait works. Check out one of their gourmet burger recipes with their blend of beef and elk meat. It is a great place for lunch or dinner. Alaskan beers too, if that is of interest! read more

This was our 3rd time here and I've gotta say, they still serve some delicious food! The decor is Alaska themed, and their menu has a nice variety. Service is friendly, but you can tell the servers are racing around a bit trying to also play host. When you get there, you have to write your name on their chalk board and a server calls your name. Problem is sometimes they don't cross names off, or if someone leaves they don't cross their name off either. Servers aren't sure who's actually there, and it's cramped. They could use a waiting area and front of house. This place is a little gem in an unassuming strip mall. They've also done crawfish boils during the summer, which is a fun change up. Give them a try! read more

This place is awesome. It's an Alaskan themed restaurant/bar. It's pretty low-key and informal, just likeAlaska. The ambience is great, it's cute inside. The food is amazing! And the food comes in big helpings. The owner is from Alaska, which I love because I am too. This restaurant would've been absolute perfect, except for the add on fee for the kitchen staff. I don't know why Colorado restaurants feel they need to do this but just charge what you need to charge to pay your employees what you want to pay them. Don't tack on an extra fee at the end of things. read more

Hadn't been here for a while and was very impressed with the food, service and overall experience. Will definitely be going back.

The OSF... service fee you add on to the bill is a scam. We've had four years of scams with Biden ...Covid "social distancing" masks, climate change, transgenderism, we're done with scams.!!! This is supposed to be some occupational service fee. Do you want us to pay your light bill too ???just bump up the prices of the food items ...otherwise people will be taking it out of the gratuities for the servers.!! this smells like buying an airline ticket. We have to figure out all the add-ons before we can figure out if we can afford it ....Until this changes, I won't be back... read more

Hannah is the best and definitely coming back for her and that Mac daddy burger !!! Such a nice spot!
